I'm a dog (honorary rottie) & need meat. So you basically have three choices. You can buy some canned meat that you don't know its quality till you open the can. Buy some FD in cans & again don't know the quality till you open the can. Or buy your meat & can it yourself.

I'm a dog (honorary rottie) & need meat. So you basically have three choices. You can buy some canned meat that you don't know its quality till you open the can. Buy some FD in cans & again don't know the quality till you open the can. Or buy your meat & can it yourself.

Well Hawk at least you know the quality of the meat that went into your own canning. On another note I'm seeing that a lot of the better brands of FD meats are offering small shelf size cans for sale. This could allow you to actually try out their products w/o paying for a full size #10 can. Now that I think about it, why not just canned dog food? dozier

Reason: Added info

we can beef. We buy whole roasts (about 15 # each) I cut them into 1-2" squares, packed into wide mouth quarts add 1 teaspoon canning salt. Place into canner for 90 minutes and presto your own canned beef. Side note it took. Me 4 hours to cut up 80#'s of beef.

I jump on pork shoulder when its $1.09/lb or less & have cases of it put away. Chicken leg quarters run $.69/lb so its cheap to put up. Not often I eat beef because of the price. Most beef is burger & make chili or meatloaf with it. Sometimes lasagna. Maybe a steak once a month.
